- APC 2 has Simple rules - must be an ACE patch, and must use the 'mono', 'legato', or 'duo' voice modes.

- There aren't really any guidelines for voting - all votes are appreciated, and however one decides which patches stand out is the right way. A little feedback explaining votes is very welcome as well, just keep it real short and to the point.

Patch authors:
Please post your (numbered) first, second, and third place selections from this set in this thread. First place translates into 3 points for the patch, 2nd : 2 points, 3rd: 1 point.

If you entered, you must vote, and please do not vote for yourself!

Results will be tabulated one week from the date of this post (12/25/2010, 10:00am UTC -6), when the poll stops running. Most points wins, and best of luck to all the entrants!

Everyone else:
Anyone is welcome to vote. If you wish to do so, please post your (numbered) first, second, and third place selections from this set in this thread. First place translates into 3 points for the patch, 2nd : 2 points, 3rd: 1 point.

Results:
The Winner (preset with the most votes) will receive their choice of 1 free u-he NFR (not for resale) software product. As seen from the previous contests it's not like this is some trivial thing. Urs has exceptional karma with users and this just one example why.

I guess 'not obligated' refers to rating three patches in order, rather than not voting at all (which would go without saying), but it's not clear what the alternative is - are you suggesting that they may vote for just one, or two, or three as they choose? If so how are points allocated?

EDIT: I've just realised that you copied the instructions from the last voting thread - and it didn't seem to confuse anyone then, so probably no need to change it now.

I made a mistake with one of the patches I submitted. The Low Kazoo High Lead. I must have turned the quality up before submitting it. It uses too much CPU on Good. Switch it down to Standard or even Draft for reasonable CPU usage.

Great sounds again this contest. My choices are:
1. Babbling Brook Nice patch but the credit belongs to URS for creating such nice filters
2. Volcanic Mud Amazingly thick and for juicy for just a single "voice" (swapped the breath for the pressure control and had a lot of fun)
3. Rosy Floyd Very pretty

edited because of a mistake in patch name 4th Dimension changed to Volcanic Mud (original comment was about Volcanic Mud)
